"Yes, I can confirm that baby Rooney is on the way....isn't it exciting :-) Thank you everyone, for the lovely messages."

We have to admit that we rather enjoy poking fun at the bizarre name choices of the rich and famous but are glad to hear that these two are still down to earth.

Coleen admitted:

"I would like to have a family - maybe three or four children - and I would be happy to be a full-time mum. I do enjoy my work, but I'd be happy when we do have children to just get on with that."
